1940 Brocklesby mid-air collision
A mid-air collision occurred over Brocklesby, New South Wales, Australia, on 29 September 1940. Two Royal Australian Air Force Avro Ansons remained locked together after colliding, and then landed safely. Both navigators and the pilot of the lower Anson bailed out. All four crewmen survived the incident, and the upper Ansons were repaired and returned to flight service.
